CCN Forum: Understanding Computations in Humans and Machines: My journey into data science as a cognitive scientist
Teon L. Brooks, Ph.D., Senior Data Scientist, Mozilla, Executive Director, Computation in Education Labs
Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss the value and merits of both the formal and informal training that prepared me for a career in data science. I will highlight the intersection of my previous research in developing methods to understand the brain-behavior dynamics during reading with my contributions to the MNE project and the Brain Imaging Data Structure. I will also provide some recommendations of practical skills development for early career researchers.
